"Quick, send Mr. Sun to the hospital."
In a trance, Sun Xue vaguely heard Wang Ke's voice coming from her ear.
"Mr. Wang, I..."
Sun Xue tried hard to open her eyes. She wanted to say that she was fine, but her eyelids seemed to be stuck together, her calves were weak, and her consciousness was becoming increasingly blurred.
She felt a pair of strong hands supporting her body. Her body was limp and she had no strength at all. It was getting darker and darker in front of her eyes, and everything around her seemed to become quiet.
Her body felt warm, she felt sleepy and wanted to sleep.
Gradually, she knew nothing...
She slept soundly that time, and when she opened her eyes it was already afternoon.
"Mr. Sun, you finally woke up!"
What caught her eye was Li Qian's smiling face.
"Accountant Li...why...am I...in the hospital?"
Sun Xue felt a burning pain in her throat, and her muscles felt as if they were pricked by needles.
"Mr. Sun, you fainted at the construction site. Mr. Wang took you to the hospital. You have a high fever of 39.5 degrees Celsius. The doctor said you have a lung infection and asked you to talk less and rest in bed."
Sun Xue glanced at the coat covering the quilt, and she remembered that it was the coat that Mr. Wang had taken from the car for her.
She remembered that she and Mr. Wang were standing side by side at the construction site, talking. Then, she felt dizzy and couldn't remember what happened next...
"Accountant Li...is the construction site...all right?"
"Mr. Sun, everything is fine at the construction site, don't worry. Mr. Wang is leading the team in cleaning up the site. I heard that with everyone's concerted efforts last night, the losses have been minimized."
"I've contacted all of my suppliers, and for those who need restocking, I've arranged for them to ship as quickly as possible. Also, the city government has sent a rescue team to assist on-site."
Sun Xue felt a pang of pain in her nose, and the moment she closed her eyes, a tear quietly slipped down from the corner of her eye.
She was not sad because she fell ill, but because of the losses caused by the rainstorm and the delayed construction period.
Li Qian pulled the quilt towards Sun Xue and comforted her softly:
"Mr. Sun, don't worry too much. With Mr. Wang and Mr. Pei here, the construction site will be back to normal soon. Mr. Wang called a full-staff meeting this afternoon. He encouraged everyone at the meeting, saying that Mr. Sun has fallen ill for the company, so there's no reason for the rest of us not to work hard. Now the entire team is united, more united than ever!"
Hearing this, Sun Xue's eyes reddened slightly.
The rescue last night was still vivid in her mind. She truly experienced the power of unity. At that moment, everyone put their own safety aside and had only one thought in their minds: to race against time to recover the losses for the company.
"Accountant Li, is everyone safe? Is anyone injured?"
"Safe, all safe."
After hearing this answer, Sun Xue felt much more at ease.
"Mr. Sun, you two have been working so hard. Mr. Liu was leading workers in flood relief efforts at the film and television base last night when he accidentally fell and is still limping. But don't worry, he went to the hospital for a checkup and is fine, just twisted a muscle."
Sun Xue nodded. She knew that Liu Bin and his workers must have worked hard all night last night.
"I'm glad everyone's alright... As for the film and television base... is the damage serious?"
"Mr. Liu arranged very thorough protective measures for the workers in advance, so the damage was not serious."
"Cough cough..."
Sun Xue wanted to speak, but she felt like there was a fire burning in her throat, and the pain was unbearable when she spoke.
Li Qian poured Sun Xue a cup of hot water and handed it to her in a serious tone with a hint of command:
"Boss Sun, your throat is seriously inflamed. You can't speak anymore. Don't try to be stubborn this time. We have the company's back."
Sun Xue remained silent, staring out the window and thinking about her own things...
Outside the window, the sun is shining brightly.
It was as if the rainstorm last night had never happened.
But Sun Xue knew that the challenge had just begun.
I don’t know how much the total loss of all projects will be?
Also, this natural disaster is bound to disrupt the previous project implementation plan, so how can we catch up with the delayed progress?
She turned her gaze from the window to the ceiling, her thoughts drifting back to the flood relief scene last night...
She didn't expect that the storm last night was so severe. They had taken comprehensive flood prevention measures, but still couldn't withstand its powerful attack.
She knew that she would not stop moving forward because of the natural disaster, and Xuehua Company would not give up its promise because of the natural disaster.
The scenes of last night emerged in her mind one by one, and she was very glad that she was not fighting alone now, but fighting as part of a team.
Just then, the door of the ward slowly opened and several figures appeared in the ward.
Sun Xue turned her head and cried out in surprise:
"Grandpa... Dad... Auntie... Why are you... here?"
Boss Liu said with a smile, "Sun Xue, we heard you were in the hospital, so we came to see you."
"Xue'er, why are you so pale? Are you okay? It's been raining heavily since yesterday, and my eyelids have been twitching. I'm really panicking. Later, I called you but no one answered. I called Liu Bin but no one answered either. I wondered what was wrong? Why didn't you answer the phone? I was anxious, so I called your dad. He said you two must have gone to the construction site. Later, he told me you were in the hospital. Xue'er, what's wrong with you?"
Sun Xue smiled and comforted Old Man Sun, "Grandpa... I'm fine... Maybe I caught a cold from the rain last night... It's just a minor cold."
Old Man Sun came forward and sat next to Sun Xue, holding her hand and said distressedly:
"Xue'er, why are you so careless? It rained so hard last night, and there was a strong wind. Today I saw many trees in the community were blown down. Did you get hurt at the construction site last night? Look at you, your face is so pale. Don't scare grandpa."
"Grandpa...I'm really fine...don't worry."
Sun Xue endured the severe pain in her throat and pretended to be indifferent.
Zhu Ying saw Sun Xue's symptoms at a glance. She touched Sun Xue's forehead and said softly:
"Xiao Sun, you must have caught a cold from the rain last night. You still have a slight fever and your throat is inflamed. Try to talk less. Also, you might be a little anemic. You look very pale."
Li Qian, who was standing by, immediately added, "That's right. I took Mr. Sun's temperature half an hour ago, and he still has a slight fever. I've already had him take medicine, and the doctor also said, Mr. Sun..."
Li Qian realized something and immediately swallowed back the next words.
She originally wanted to say that Sun Xue's fainting was caused by anemia due to fatigue.
She immediately smiled and said, "The doctor said that Mr. Sun has a little anemia."
Old Man Sun stood up, opened the bag on the bedside table, took out the insulated lunch box, opened the lid, and held it in front of Sun Xue and said:
"Your dad said he'd come to the hospital to see you, so I went to the market and bought an old hen. I stewed it for three hours and made you some soup. Xue'er, you haven't had your grandpa's chicken soup in a long time. I remember the last time was last October. Do you think it smells good? Does it still taste the same as before?"
Sun Xue put her nose close to it, and a fresh fragrance instantly entered her nose.
Sun Xue took a deep breath and nodded happily in agreement, "Grandpa...it smells...so fragrant...it smells just like before..."
"Come, grandpa will feed you. Eat it while it's hot."
"grandfather....."
Sun Xue screamed and tears streamed down her face.
